About
April showers bring May flowers. But in Hollow’s End, they bring rising tides and grumpy sea captains.
Maya Rao was looking forward to a quiet spring at The Resting Place. The winter frost had melted, the tourists were returning, and she finally had the roof fixed. Life was good.
Then a package arrived with no return address.
Inside was a beautiful, antique porcelain teapot. It seemed like a lovely gift—until Maya brewed a cup of Earl Grey and the steam formed the shape of a sinking ship. Suddenly, her bookstore is filling with phantom seawater, her cat is stranded on top of a bookshelf, and a furious ghost captain has stormed in demanding a refund for a compass he bought in 1852.
The problem? The Captain refuses to leave until his course is corrected.
The bigger problem? If Maya can’t find the missing "Golden Compass" before the tide rises, her shop—and the entire town—will be dragged down into the ghostly depths.
To save her home, Maya must dive into a town-wide garage sale of cursed antiques, break into a landlocked lighthouse, and outsmart a school of ink-squirting shadow squids.
